… A wonderful collection of truths, and almost all are inconvenient’.‘… Something here to offend everyone’.‘… Everything from burlesque to parody, and with a sprinkling of serious commentary to confound the believers’. In the interest of balance however, here are some quotes from reviews which might have been written by others less inclined to view Heresies favorably. Again, I have undertaken this task on their behalf:“…a random assortment of schoolboy jokes. Possibly enjoyable for those who like juvenile humour — assuming they find it funny at all.”“ The attempts at serious commentary are laughable, while the so-called heretical viewpoints are the unfunny fancies of a feeble mind.”“… Betrays an underlying resentment — disguised as ‘heresy’ — of those of eminence and achievement in music’s historical record.” Hmm. Can they all be right? .Patrick Brislan
About This Quote
Something here to offend everyone is a common phrase in which an author or speaker implies that there are people out there who are too easily offended. The idea is that if you have a sensitive nature, you should perhaps try to control this so as not to be offended. However, the idea that everything from burlesque to parody and with a sprinkling of serious commentary confound the believers is a bit too extreme. Again, the phrase might have been written by a person who has an ax to grind.
